The way different languages pronounce the same word fascinates me.. for example I'm Mexican and in spanish there's a rule in grammar that says that if a c is before an e it always sounds soft so my way to pronounce it is ar-sé-us and because of that it made me think that it was based on the Greek god Zeus
The same with portuguese here. Ce and Ci are pronounced with the [s] sound. Ca, Co, Cu with the [k] sound. To have the [k] sound before the sounds of the letter 'e' and 'i' we need to use the "qu" digraph. "Que, Qui"
It has to be a soft c. 1. We don't know the origins for the name 'Arceus'. All info we have is fan-sourced. We never got any confirmation about any of the words. So the connection with Arch/Archeous is just a likelyhood, not a fact. It could be derived from Arcesius, Zeus son, the king of Ithaca. 2. Arceus original name in JP is spelled アルセウス ARUSEUSU. Pay attention to the セ - it can *only* be pronounced as se/ce. If they wanted it to have a hard 'k' they would use ケ instead and it would be written アルケウス ARUKEUSU. 3. In most international material the pronunciation is either the soft C (Spanish/French) or the common TS (German/Italian). 4. The unwanted connection with arse/arses is a really good explanation why the shift from /s/ to /k/.
I'd pronounce it arceus also, you forgot to mention that the Japanese version of the RKS System ability is called "AR or "AR Shisutemu", so the RKS theory only applies to the english, not the Japanese
Gonna clear this up: Jews do not say “Yahweh”. The vowels when seen in text is ignored and we say “Adonai” in its place, which is how we say God in hebrew. Jews do not say Yahweh.
But Arceus is older than time Arceus is Archaic But a 'c' followed by an 'e' is an 's' sound But Arceus has ''Arc''s around its body All 3 of those are valid. All 3 of those are different. (1&3 are similar)
Ahrk-ay-us. The beginning also fits with "arcane" which can also mean old and unknowable, not just magical. Which I believe is fitting for a god pokemon
9:40 God: "you have NO IDEA how many times similarly hilarious phrases have been made. You humans are sources of infinite humour for one as omniscient as I."

Yeah driving me literally insane. Never have I watched something so nitpicky about pronunciation, yet somehow he has managed to pronounce a common word so so wrong. I’ve never heard someone say it that way lol

Something that I feel was failed to mention: the RKS System ability doesn't really confirm it's the intended pronunciation, it also has a Japanese name (like Arceus) which is just "AR System" ＡＲシステム

@@alibaba3568 Afaik even though "o" is pronounced differently depending on whether the stress falls, the pronunciation is still pretty predictable if you know the rules as stress is always marked and stuff - although it might change with different accents and there might be some exceptions to the rules. But even with exceptions - pronouncing words based on how they're written in Russian is way more predictable than in English - case in point: this video.
So you're assuming that Japanese people pronounce the C as English speakers do? Cesare is how you write Caesar, the Roman emperor but Italians pronounce that "C" in a different way than English speakers would do. The word "Arkè" that is mentioned in the video can also be written as "Archè" but pronounced in the same way so the discrepancy still remains
I just call Arceus: “Mother”, “Mama”, “Ma”, “Mum”, “Llama Mama”, “Llama God” I know Arceus’ gender is ambiguous and most like to refer to them as a male and a father since they usually get compared to the Abrahamic/Monotheistic God by Pokémon fans in general, but personally they feel like a mother-figure to me. It’s kinda weird, but it gives me comfort.
I usually say "Ar-Kay-Us" as well. Though I was very confused back when it came out thanks to an Episode of "House" wherein he (House) makes a Pokemon reference by mentioning "Ar-see-us" as well as the announcer on Battle Revolution.
Non-game-related media says "AR-see-oos". This is evident in Detective Pikachu, as Pikachu himself invokes Arceus as we might say "Oh my God". Game-related media says "ARK-ee-oos", such as in the case of Silvally's RKS System ability. Use either. Game Freak doesn't much seem to care.
In the direct that brought us Legends Arceus, a game all about this specific Pokemon, in an official presentation, Takato Utsunomiya's English dubbing voice actor pronounces it as Ar-Key-Iss
@@NaomiAlicia4242564 Dude, if we had ONE pronunciation, the anime wouldn't go with the soft "c" and ugly "eu" way. And it gets me mad, because I hadn't taken Latin courses yet, but when I saw the end in -us, I immediately thought "oh, this is the god of Pokémon, it ends like a latin word, guess it's pronounced Arkéus. Neat." And the ANIME didn't get it. Latin language did NOT win. I think the Portuguese and maybe Spanish have one and only one pronunciation, though. Kind of... Now I'm doubting.
As someone who played battle revolution and never really watched any of the films, while also having been an easily amused British kid at the time: "Arse-ee-us"
Well Arceus can become any single type and master any single thing, so why don't we just agree that its name can be pronounced in any one way that people choose for themselves? Why can't every iteration of Arceus be the correct and one true iteration of the name???
Lockstin! I want to see the astronomy of necrozma , solgaleo and lunaala . They are deep and rich but you only covers the alchemy aspects . I have a theory that lunaala might initially be a blue star before being worshipped as the moon. It fits perfectly.
In my head cannon Arceus name is in Latin, and so it can be pronounced in 3 different ways and always someone is gong to tell you it's incorrect. Personally Ar-se-us is easier for me to say because my native language is Spanish, but i find it funnier to say Archeus (with the che part like saying chef).
In Germany, a lot of people say its name like "a-tsois" (with the a pronounced like the last "a" in banana), because "e" and "u" form an "oi" sound in German.
I used to watch MandJTV, but that’s a little off. Unfortunately no official sources (to my knowledge) actually call it Arkoos. It would be more correct to say Key-Ogree instead of Kyogre and Groo-Don instead of Groudon because of that one bit in Pokemon (I think the pokerap) when they mispronounced it. Ngl it’s pretty annoying (but kinda funny) people _un-ironically_ say it.
The katakana for Arceus is アルセウス (A-RU-SE-U-SU) so I'm sticking with AR-say-us. If it was supposed to be Ar-kay-us or something similar I would imagine the katakana to be アルケウス instead.

Ar-see-us is how iv said it
You're basically saying "butt us"
アルセウス (a-ru-se-u-su) is the Japanese for Arceus, so the proper pronunciation is are-say-oos.

He was struck by lightning for worshiping the Lord Pipi instead of ARCEUS 🤣
“Are-Key-Us”
I go by the movie. Although, I also sometimes go by Japanese (but also, like, never), and say “Are-See-Us”.
I just call Arceus: “Mother”, “Mama”, “Ma”, “Mum”, “Llama Mama”, “Llama God”
I know Arceus’ gender is ambiguous and most like to refer to them as a male and a father since they usually get compared to the Abrahamic/Monotheistic God by Pokémon fans in general, but personally they feel like a mother-figure to me. It’s kinda weird, but it gives me comfort.
Mikey: ITS ARKOOS
Have you seen that one meme-comic with the OG-regi trio?
You aren't alone
interpretation accepted as headcanon now
It actually is pronounced Arkoos
Luma vibes
I wonder how it's going to be pronounced when more trailers for Pokémon Legends come out.
I usually say "Ar-Kay-Us" as well. Though I was very confused back when it came out thanks to an Episode of "House" wherein he (House) makes a Pokemon reference by mentioning "Ar-see-us" as well as the announcer on Battle Revolution.
Non-game-related media says "AR-see-oos". This is evident in Detective Pikachu, as Pikachu himself invokes Arceus as we might say "Oh my God".
Game-related media says "ARK-ee-oos", such as in the case of Silvally's RKS System ability.
Use either. Game Freak doesn't much seem to care.
Fun fact: Pipi is Clefairy in Japanese.
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Clefairy: Yay I am Arceus now!
*yis*
I.e. the real name eh haha
Did... Did this joke just go full cirlce!?
I use both depending on enphasis. Arch- is what I think is more correct and has more of divine sonority, but Ars- is easier to say
9:35 Pipi means "Piss" in Spanish.
I just laughed loudly.
As someone who speaks Spanish I can confirm that this is actually true.
In English It's baby talk for male genitals. Witch is a sentence I never thought I'd say
Aaaaand in italian as well
As it does in many other languages ;)

@that one animator YOU'LL FLOAT TOO
In the direct that brought us Legends Arceus, a game all about this specific Pokemon, in an official presentation, Takato Utsunomiya's English dubbing voice actor pronounces it as Ar-Key-Iss
To hear all those English pronunciations makes me really glad that in german it's just the Discussion whether it's "Arkeus" or "Arseus" lol
French looking at the rest of the world because our language can only allow one pronunciation of Arceus.... Latin language wins bitches.
Und Arzeus
@@NaomiAlicia4242564 Dude, if we had ONE pronunciation, the anime wouldn't go with the soft "c" and ugly "eu" way. And it gets me mad, because I hadn't taken Latin courses yet, but when I saw the end in -us, I immediately thought "oh, this is the god of Pokémon, it ends like a latin word, guess it's pronounced Arkéus. Neat." And the ANIME didn't get it. Latin language did NOT win.
I think the Portuguese and maybe Spanish have one and only one pronunciation, though. Kind of... Now I'm doubting.
@@NaomiAlicia4242564 whats the french pronunciation? lol
Arr-kay-us ?
@@byksEBM c+e = soft c. Basic rule of French.
Latin pronunciation would be
Ar-sé-us
*Everyone in the pokemon fandom:* fighting over how to pronounce Arceus
*MandJTV fans:* Why can't you all just BEHAVE. YOURSELVES and call it Arkoos.
Wait, people argue that it isn't Arkoos?!

I would love to see a series where you explain and theorize what would happen if two specific Pokémon fought, ex: eternatus vs ultra necrozma.
Or the paradox of Zacian and Zamazenta fighting each other-unstoppable force vs immovable object.
Half the comments: its ar-key-us
Me and the other half: ARKOOS
HAIL YEAH
HAAAAIIIIIIIILLLLL YAH
This intire comment is full of HAIL YEA hail yea my man
R-SEA-ISSSSS
Hail Yeah that's correct
I’ve wondered about this for ages, but ever since Silvally was revealed with its Ability RKS System I just pronounce Arceus as this: Ar-ke-us
For the love of... it’s
*A R K O O S*
Hail yeah
I was just about to say that hail yeah

Lockstin: How do YOU pronounce Arceus
MandJtv fans: Arkoos
Are-Cee-iss for me tbh
Arse-Cee-iss for me tbh
As someone who played battle revolution and never really watched any of the films, while also having been an easily amused British kid at the time: "Arse-ee-us"
yup, sounds abt right to me
I also say Arse-ee-us. I also STILL call CURE-EM "Ky-u-rem"
Thanks to the root words and the RKS system, that’s pretty much how I pronounce it: “R-K-S (Ar-Kay-Ess)”
I haven't watched the video yet but I always read it as "Ar-see-us" and I'm British lol
"How would type out how you pronounce Arceus , let me know down below " little did he know there was a hailstorm coming
Hail yeah
It’s Arkoos, all the real ones know that
Edit: I just read the other comments... I’m unoriginal apparently
It’s no problem! I was going to comment that too!
That's the problem with rehashing stale memes. It stops being original after awhile.
Yes
Ar-koos is most correct
Hehehehehe! Beat ya to it!
Well Arceus can become any single type and master any single thing, so why don't we just agree that its name can be pronounced in any one way that people choose for themselves? Why can't every iteration of Arceus be the correct and one true iteration of the name???
I would agree with you except for the fact that the one true pronunciation is actually Arkoos.
@@gavingilchrist9346 Well that's just cringe.
A legendary name by any other Pokémon will just as powerful, especially because you can give it nickname.
When everything's worse we'll nap that type:null (only true sinnoh stanz will get this)
Lockstin! I want to see the astronomy of necrozma , solgaleo and lunaala . They are deep and rich but you only covers the alchemy aspects .
I have a theory that lunaala might initially be a blue star before being worshipped as the moon. It fits perfectly.
Well, the moon (as well as the sun) is a planet to those who practice astrology and the word planet originally meant wanderer.
Cosmog is literally a nebula. That is not astrology
In my head cannon Arceus name is in Latin, and so it can be pronounced in 3 different ways and always someone is gong to tell you it's incorrect. Personally Ar-se-us is easier for me to say because my native language is Spanish, but i find it funnier to say Archeus (with the che part like saying chef).
In Germany, a lot of people say its name like "a-tsois" (with the a pronounced like the last "a" in banana), because "e" and "u" form an "oi" sound in German.
Ye I do too. I thought the ceus was derived from Zeus, which in German is pronounced like "tsois". So I thought that was the reference
It's definitely "Arkoos" I have it on good authority
Yes Arcoos we follow MandJtv
Arkoos and yaveltal
I used to watch MandJTV, but that’s a little off. Unfortunately no official sources (to my knowledge) actually call it Arkoos. It would be more correct to say Key-Ogree instead of Kyogre and Groo-Don instead of Groudon because of that one bit in Pokemon (I think the pokerap) when they mispronounced it.
Ngl it’s pretty annoying (but kinda funny) people _un-ironically_ say it.
mandjtv fan alert
Bro I’ll hail yeah to that
The katakana for Arceus is アルセウス (A-RU-SE-U-SU) so I'm sticking with AR-say-us.
If it was supposed to be Ar-kay-us or something similar I would imagine the katakana to be アルケウス instead.
"Human stop poking me or I'm sending you to the distortion world!"
If Arceus was pissed, he would murder them all lol.
I believe they stated that the official pronunciation is “Ark-ee-us”.
Yes they changed it do to fear of it sounding like arse to English people but it was originally pronounced with a soft c.
2:16 sorry lockstin my dad made me pause at this exact time lmao
Me: See's this title.
My Brain: It's Arkoos. Get it right.
HAIL YEAH
SMTIV taught me YHVH is pronounced *record scratch*
Also, I've always said "Arsey-us"
I imagine Michael from MandJTV is gonna be bombarded by peeps about this video. Give it less than 24 hours and we'll see him in the comments.
This is going to be in the next ASPITPIAY
I used to say "Are-See-Us" but then Sylvali came along and now i sometimes swap to "Are-kay-us"
I personally say are-see-us since that's what I'm used to saying
Silver+ *ally*
Silvally no sil-va-lli
@@zach_smith maybe pokemon names should stop using C's and just always write it as K or S (here in holland if followed by an H its pronounced G)
@@ElysiaWhitemoonOmega Maybe. I'm from the USA, I just started saying it that way because the youtubers I seen play pokemon diamond pearl and platinum said it that way
@@zach_smith its the C before the E that makes it sound like an S mostly, but its kinda ll in the past i guess as officially its Arkeus, whatever it was before or planned as before, its Arkeus now
Here in Brasil (aka Brazil) we pronauce it like ahr-seh-ous, really similar to the Detective Pikachu movie version.
I grew up with a brother that pronounced it AR-SOOS. Because it sounds like Zeus.
That was how I originally pronounced it as well.
AR-ZOOZ
In German that "ceus" can literaly Just be Said Like Zeus, so thats how i Say it
